Can penetrating, heart-wrenching, and unforgettable war stories coexist under one cover with mystical tales that send shivers down your spine? The Siege of Leningrad, children's orphanages, evacuation, partisan movement... Despair, longing, cold, the seemingly endless Leningrad winter, first love that was supposed to last forever but ended tragically... And right next to it, vague visions induced by an old pendant, a thirst for revenge tearing the soul apart, and a magical return to the world of fairy-tale youth, when everything was ahead, everything was possible, and beloved grandmother was still so young... All of this mixes in a bright kaleidoscope of stories, spinning through which suddenly arises the question in your mind: "Mom, who is 'Dovoina'?"
